With the risk of gas going toward $6 within the next 6 yrs...
 
We'll be at $6 long before 6 years have elapsed. Cost of gas is not a large factor in why we bought a Prius.

Well... not to stray too far off topic... I don't think gas will be $6 in 6 years. At any rate I am sure glad I got my Prius and I bought it for the features/versatility and good gas mileage. I currently have 200 miles on this tank and my avg MPG is 50.5. I recently read a test on the Smart Four Two. Now to me, that car makes no sense at all. It requires premium fuel, seats 2 and gets 36 mpg overall. Why not get a Honda Fit that seats 4 comfortable and gets 30 mpg on REGULAR gas? Apparently the Smart car is selling very well. Not sure how SMART it is to buy one though (Pun intended!)

My satellite has music that is nice but the CD player in the Prius is much better.

What states offer which Packages? by yellowman
Sep 27, 2008 (1:25 pm)

Hi all,
 
I'm in the market for a 2009 Prius and I live in Southern California. Ideally, I would like the Package 3 Prius, which includes the Bluetooth but not the Navigation system. Two different local dealers have told me that I cannot get a Package 3 or 4 in Southern California - only a Package 2 or 5 (or higher). Here are my questions:
 
1. What US states DO offer a Package 3?
2. Has anyone had a Toyota dealer install an after-market bluetooth phone system onto a Prius that did not come with it? What was it like? The dealer gave this option for about $400.00.
 
Any advice would be very helpful!
 
Mike

They sell package 3 in Washington state.... We had an option to get package 3, but settled on 2 because of the deal we were getting and the only 3 that they had was a color we could not stand...

Yes, the Prius will make interesting little clicks, hums and who-knows-what. The book says that it will do some kind of electrical check several hours after shutting it off. Interesting.

lights flash when I shut off prius by jimmyo1

Twice today when I shut off my 1 yr old Prius, it beeped once and the hazard lights flashed once. There were no warning lights on the dashboard and nothing on the screen to indicate a problem. The car was in park as it normally is when I shut it off. Despite this apparent warning of some sort, the car appeared to shut off normally. I can find nothing in the owner's manual indicating what the Prius was trying to warn me of? Can anyone shed any light on this?
